Do you think this new b2 sorc will remove all the pressure to play abrupt decay?

EDIT: NM, I need to RTFC ROFL
It also stifles.
Alas, I think any sane version is going to be at least UR for Day's Undoing, Snapcaster Mage (and maybe Stifle), or WR for can't lose gideon and something like Angel's Grace.
This was intended for decks that don't normally need the green :) I'll still hold on to mine.

That red instant seems pretty interesting. It's a 3 mana counterspell /flusterstorm that need you to end the game the next turn.
The new red masticore is also pretty interesting.
Possibly playable in moon stompy lists? Not sure what you'd want to fling with it, but it's a decent ability and 5R to reuse is doable.
Lots of good cards for red in this set it seems, maybe something will even see play in legacy, modern more probably though.
Nic fit really don't need a 4 mana sac spell. It need something viable at the 1-2 slot alongside therapy. I've been playing crack the earth, but it's super low impact a lot of times.
Add Form of the Dragon for the triple threat.
Why not Perilous Research or Angelic Purge? (Ok, only Perilous Research meets your requirements). Oh, Diabolic Intent works and is also in Black.
Well, that pretty much puts a nail in the coffin of a functionally same but new worded Astral Slide reprint, can't see them making the enchantment and a creature at the same CC with the same effect. Bummer. Guess we'll have to wait and see if we get anything to go with Drake Roost, Archfiend of Ifnir, and Curator of Mysteries (plus Shadow of the Grave of course). Looks like cycling is UB in this set.
The issue is that intent and a lot of other spells are super bad without a creature. Therapy isn't as bad, and when it's good, it's a 1 mana mind twist (which is still banned lol). Also, more spells means less creatures, but you still need a decently high creature count for your sac spells. Nic fit would really need a monumental card to make it playable nowadays. Like a thoughtseize with alt casting cost sac a creature. Hoping for a decent card in this expansion or the next that make use of -1-1 counters. The ones spoiled until now aren't good enough.
